oe eee eet te THURSDAY....0CT. 12, “Golden State stands third in expendi“tures for relief and benefit work. And cen THE TRANSCRIPT. " Bblished every vent \Haltiaye by by . BROWN & CALKINS. KN. P, BROWER. L, 6. CALKINS. S. 1899. THE ODD FB FELLOWS. Past Grand Mester ter Lord Tells of the Order’s Greatness. A. R. Lord, who got home this week from five weeks’ sojourn in the East, during which he attended the meeting of the Sovereign Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows at Detroit, bas since bis return been holding a continuous levee with brother Odd Fellows who are anxious to learn the latest news of the order. Mr. Lord was present at several sessions of the body. There were 198 members of the august assembly which deliberated upon the good of an order representing 1,172,000 brothers. He found that California occupied a position well up in the scroll of Odd Fellowship. It is eighth tm point of membership, and it must be remembered that several of the States have several times the population of this. The as for per capita payments in charity, leads the next highest State by’ nearly 50 per cent, thus not only sustaining the name of the order but reflecting credit upon the California spirit -operating through a fraternal order. ‘The only States leading in membership are New York and Pennsylvania. The totals of expenditures in relief work show that the California membership has paid inabout $8.70 per capita and the next highest falls below $6. During the past fiscal year the Odd Fellows have gained 18,000 in member. ship and the Rebekahs over 26,t00—a healthful increase when the activity and diversity of fraternal orders bidding for the allegiance of citizens as prospective members is considered. Since the year of 1830, when authentic records were first kept, the order has paid out $269,000,000 in its various: benefits. There was no special legislation by the Sovereign Lodge which would interest any others than members. The lodge meets once each year, bat only ‘one one-half of the members ere new ones, as the other half hold over. ‘the system gives a yearly change inthe membership, and at the same time keeps enough experienced members ip the body to lead off in the business. Mr.-Lord speaks highly of Detroit as a convention city. The entertainment and courtesy shown the delegates could not be surpassed. Nothing was too good for them, and from the time they entered the city till they left they were feted and feasted and their every need supplied. One feature of the entertainment was an excursion on the Detroit river in a palatial steamer, which Mr. Lord describes as a veritable floating palace. After the adjournment of the lodge jdate the public he will continhe to ord ~ BRIEF. MENTION, . finor. "dud and a Comets r Leal interest. =~ : The Daughters of Laurel Parlor meet tonight.

A. M. Allen, formerly manager of the gasworks here, together with his son-inlaw, Martin I. Smith and others, have incorporated the Providence Oil Company in Fresno county.

He Catches Everybody. Mark Swan’s engagement in this city next Wednesday evening will be one _ long to be remembered. His new play, “Brown’s in Town,” is better fitted to his purpose than any which he previously had. His mannerisms, his peculiarities, his tricks of speecb and action—in fact, Swan, without which the chief charm of his performance would be wanting, fits into the play without causing crease or wrinkle, excepting always the crease born of laughter. After al), the: play is secondary. Swan with his drollery, his jollity, his brightness, bis sparkle, his dash, is the attraction. He has always won his success by bonest bard work and true merit, aud is therefore honored aud ‘respected by ail who kuow him. From the time he trips upon the stage until be leaves it, he is the impersonation of all that is wiasome and lovable, Mer, women and. children are carried away by his archness, Got Even With Readoligh, One night when traveling through Virginia John Randolph stopped at an inn near the forks of two roads. The innkeeper was a fine old gentleman, and, knowing who his distingvished . guest was, he endeavored during the evening to draw him info a conversation, but failed, But in the morning, when Mr. Randolph was ready to atart, he called-for his bill and paid it. The landlord, still anxious to have some conversation, tackled him again: “Which way are you traveling, Mr. Bandolph?” “Sir!” said Mr. Randolph, with a look of displeasure. “T asked,” said the lagdlord, “which gvay you are traveling?” “Hare I paid you my bill?’ “Yes.” “Do I owe you anything more?” “No. ” “Well, I am going just where } please. Do you understand * ved e “Yes. ” The lanclord by this time got somewhat excited, and Mr. Randolph drove off. But to the landlord’s surprise in a few minutes he sent one of the servants to inguire which of the forks of the road to take. Mr. Randolph. still being within hearjng distance, the landlord yelled at the top of his voice: “Mr. Randolph, you don’t owe me one cent; take whichevdr road you} ing. in one shrike there bave been Dugs. one field mouse and one leech.

Once when John Van Buren, son of President Van Buren, was making. a speech in behalf of his father, an old Democrat rose in the audience and upbraided him as a bolter. Few men were more effective on the stump or quicker at repartee than John, and he replied to the charge ‘vith an anecdote something like this: — “One day a man on horseback came up with a hoy who was contending with an. overturned load of hay. Instead of tossing the hay back in the wagon, the boy was energetically tossing it hither and thither, regardless of where it landed. “The traveler{halted and said; ‘My young friend, why do you work so . furiously this hot weather? Why do . you, not toss the hay back in the wag‘on and be more deliberate in your lai bors?’ “The boy stopped, wiped the streaming perspiration off. his face on his shirt sleeve, and, pointing to the pile of i hay on the roadside, exclaimed, ‘Stranger, dad’s under thar,’ and then he set about work more furiously than ever.” 0 It is noticeable that the chronic borThere.is no great man so large that Hood's Pills cure biliousness, sick readache, cxeeennen ae GOOCOCOOSOOOEOOO > MAHER @ ¢ BS EE REE EEE GOP work if'they were of praise. s by local applications as they ¢ reach the diseased portion cannot There is only one way ness, and that is by medies. .
